One particularly brutal review came from Nick Hilton, film critic for the Independent, who said that the first lady came off in the film as “a preening, scowling void of pure nothingness” who leads a “vulgar, gilded lifestyle.”

Hilton added that the film is so terrible that it fails even at being effective propaganda and is likely to be remembered as “a striking artifact... of a time when Americans willingly subordinated themselves to a political and economic oligopoly.”

I think we can officially conclude 2026 is The Year Of The Scowling Void Of Pure Nothingness

    It had Ice Cube, and I can't, for the life of me, understand why the fuck people keep giving that man work.

    Ghost of Mars, that horrible XXX sequel, War of the Worlds, shit... they are remaking Anaconda? That's going to suck, too.
